Do you eat well? Excercise? Stay in shape?
Become aware of your current health situation and what you should do about it.

Share your thoughts.

I, personally, don't eat as much as I should. I hardly get any protein, which is bad, and I also stay up too late.
I'm not very fit. I should really try to change that.
 
Definitely not.
I have a skinny body but I eat wayy to much junk food and I don't exercise much due to my asthma. The only sport I can really do is swimming but I'm not doing it right now. I really should since I plan on lifeguarding. owo
 
I eat a lot and never leave the house B)

I'm obviously the picture child of health
 
I think the media makes everyone feel unhealthy.
Sure, I got some stuff I`m not doing right, like sleeping irregularly and not eating varied enough.

All in all though, I`m still quite healthy. I don`t eat significantly to much or to little. I don`t exercise, but I walk around enough and am active enough. I don`t smoke, don`t drink to much (to often), I pay attention to hygene.

I should work harder to keep my brain active though. Thats the only thing I feel I should really work on. I will, I`ll read more books and find some hobby to challenge me more on an intellectual level.

But sure I`m healthy. I barely ever get sick or anything. :)
However, psychologically speaking, I`m a titanic. :D
 
I had a blood test awhile back and apparently I'm pretty healthy.
I am over weight though, which I'm working on.
I joined a gym, changed the way I think about food and I'm trying to be more active.
Have managed to loose nearly 6kg, which is great.
^^
 
I am the unhealthiest person ever. I think the only healthy thing about me is that I only drink water (and this is because I am very poor and I hate soda haha). I get tired easily after going up the stairs, and I am NEVER full. Some days people say I look skinnier and some days they say I look fatter so I don't know what's going on. I don't get full hours of sleep and I end up getting headaches and colds pretty easily. I am such an anxious person and I am sad all the time. So over all I am not healthy.

I like this post though. I wish I could change many things about my health.

nopee, i hate sweating so exercising is a no. my eating would be fine if i just would stop eating when im bored
 
I'm not as healthy as I was back in school, but that's because I lost what little interest I had in sports and took up art, music and gaming xD I used to be really in shape.




These days it's...Debatable whether I'm healthy or not.




Unhealthy things

- I stay up late...But I still get enough sleep, so it's not that bad I guess. I do get somewhat regular periods where I can't get a proper nights sleep or I can't sleep at all though despite wanting to. I didn't sleep at all on Boxing day and I only managed to get 2 hours last night and couldn't get back to sleep. I've only had those 2 hours since Christmas day.
- My diet isn't particularly good. I usually only have one meal a day (if I remember to eat at all) and then it's usually junk food like Pizza or a burger. Maybe I'll have a small snack but when I say that, I really mean small. I don't really get any enjoyment out of eating, I do it because I have to so I find it easy to forget about it.
- Whilst I've cut down on drinking (alcohol) the amount I do drink when I have it is stupid. My liver probably looks like a raisin at this point.
- The only thing I really drink (not alchohol) is Dr.Pepper and Pepsi, and I'll almost definitely drink 2 liters of one of them a day.



Healthy things
- I leave the house at least once a day, even if I don't need to just so that I can have a walk, even if it's just to the shops and back for something I didn't actually really need. I feel like a slob if I stay in the house all day and it takes about 20 minutes to walk there and back, which is at least something.
- I gave up smoking about a year ago and went got an E-cig. Whilst the 'health benefits' of an E-cig are still debatable, I feel it's a step in the right direction. I at least feel healthier. I smoke when I drink (or I'll lose the E-cig) but 20 cigs on the occasions that I have a drink is better than the 40 a day I was on.
- I've cut down on the amount of alcohol I drink. It's gone from regularly a few times a week to around once a month. There's a few times I've gone out more regularly, but that's usually due to friends saying "come round, we're just going to play video games, we're not going out" then change their mind as soon as I get there not giving me much choice since I just spent over an hour traveling to their house...
- I have stuff like dumbbells n shiz around my room and I have periods where I use that stuff as well as other 'exercise' that doesn't require equipment. I eventually fall out of the habit though (I ain't touched that stuff in weeks) but it at least keeps me from losing all muscle mass entirely.




I guess everything evens out to at least make me 'averagely healthy'.
 
For the most part, yes. I do a lot of cardio, most of time manage to sleep normal hours (goes a little whack in the holidays though), and diet-wise my main weaknesses are takeaway and alcohol - but I've managed to cut down on both significantly.

Takeaway is hard to resist! I love kebabs and Chinese takeout. When I'm at uni it's easy to resist because I haven't actually found a restaurant I like, so I just don't buy any fast food for a couple of weeks at a time. When I'm at home though, like just now, it's more difficult because I know the best takeouts! I've still somehow managed to cut down to just once per week though when I'm here. Odd thing is, other than that I eat pretty healthily. I don't eat much in the way of sweets, chocolate, crisps/chips, ice cream, etc and I cook mainly using fresh meat/fish and vegetables.

With alcohol, it's been a couple of weeks since I was last actually drunk: and it was because I was drinking something I don't usually have so didn't really know my limits with it. For the first 8-9 months of this year I was drinking a lot of out boredom, due to being too ill to really do much (walking was a challenge in itself and I wasn't well enough to see my friends often unless they came to me), but since my health improved I've been making an effort to cut down. It's going well so far - even Christmas hasn't screwed me over too much, because I deliberately drank a weaker wine over Christmas/Boxing Day.
 
i eat fast food at least once a week
i only exercise when i have to (taking aerobics this year)
i have a high metabolism so while i can eat a meal for a 20 year old guy (WAIT IM 5 YEARS AWAY FROM THAT,,,,), ill stay at ~96 lbs.
im p unhealthy.
 
Meh, average I guess. I eat healthily and barely ever smoke (which is like the worst thing you can do to your body) but I probably should exercise more. The problem is im skinny so I have no motivation to exercise.
 
i get on average 5-6 hours of sleep, i eat lots and i never leave my house except to go to church and school.

yes i am so healthy
 
Do you eat well?
Eh. Not really. I mean, I eat all the right stuff, but also drink at least 3 sodas a day so...
Excercise?
Not able to. Doctors said I could die if I get hurt while exercising. However, they cleared me for treadmills so c:
Stay in shape?
The best I can c:
 
ummm,, kinda??
i exercise weekly but then I go back to eating junk lmao.
 
I eat healthy, but...
I only exercise in the spring and summer and my sleep schedule is really weird. During the fall and winter I just curl up under blankets and spend 90% of my time sitting on my butt. Or sleeping.
So no :c
 
I'm in good shape somehow so I guess kinda but I could do better; I don't always eat well and my sleeping schedule is totally messed up (if you'd even call it a schedule cause I tend to just sleep whenever I feel like).
 
I'm pretty meh. Since my winter break started I've been staying up extremely late and I haven't exercised since the summer.
My mothers a nurse so I eat pretty healthy at home. I drink milk, all that jazz.
I really need to get back into exercising.
